Religion: Instructions without Power
One Sunday morning a number of years ago my wife piled the children into the family car to come to Sunday school and worship. When she turned the switch to start, the engine wouldn't even grunt. The battery was completely dead.
After lunch, I went to a nearby service station and related my problem to the attendant. He went back to speak to the station manager who was under a car on the grease rack. The attendant came back with this helpful offer, “Sure we can take care of it. Bring it on in.”
Now isn't that the trouble with a lot of religion? You get instructions, but you don’t get power. You get good advice, but you don’t get the strength to carry it out. My friends, good advice without power is bad news.
